Ellen Page visits Alton Gas site in support of Indigenous water protectors
The Halifax-born actress was at the Alton Gas site over the weekend to speak out against a controversial plan that would use water from one of Nova Scotia’s major rivers to create huge underground caverns to store natural gas.
“Humbled and honoured to have spent time with the extraordinary Dorene Bernard and other grassroots grandmothers and water protectors to learn more about how they are protecting the water and land from Alton Gas and the Nova Scotia Government and the best ways to support,” Page wrote in an Instagram post to her two million followers Monday.
